The 49ers won the night they stopped Stewart from sliding. Grade: A. The board owed the 49ers one, and it paid up: Josaiah Stewart, the No. 53 name on the board, sitting there at pick 252 like a gift left on the doorstep. This is how you run a draft, and the A reflects it.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In pick 15 they get juice off the edge, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43
Rnd2
Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart in Round 2, Pick 11 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75
Rnd3
Walter Nolen
Taking Walter Nolen in pick No. 75 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick80
Rnd3
Armand Membou
The board fumbled Armand Membou all the way to the 80th pick, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100
Rnd3
Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113
Rnd4
Ashton Jeanty
You do not let a running back like Ashton Jeanty reach slot 113 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick138
Rnd4
Jahdae Barron
Steal is underselling it; Jahdae Barron at the 138th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick147
Rnd5
Cam Ward
A quarterback of that caliber at No. 147 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick187
Rnd6
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in the 187th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230
Rnd7
Jake Majors
Jake Majors in No. 230 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242
Rnd7
Dylan Fairchild
Somehow Dylan Fairchild was still sitting there in slot 242, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick252
Rnd7
Josaiah Stewart
They will replay Josaiah Stewart at the 252nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
